Which of Newton's laws of motion describes the motion of an object that has a net force of ON?

1 answer:

3 0

Newton's first and second laws of motion both do, but I think the one you're looking for is: <em>The First Law of Motion</em>. That description is a little more direct.

It says that if an object is not acted on by a net external force, then it continues in "constant, uniform motion".

What conclusions can you draw about the connection between the Sun’s altitude and the latitude of the observer on seasonal chang

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Altitude of the Sun and the latitude position on the earth play an important role in the season change on the earth.

When the altitude of the sun is high then the average temperature of the earth is higher because the luminous intensity of the sun rays is higher due to the focusing of high energy sun rays over a small area.

But when the sun is at higher altitudes we receive less denser rays of the sun and hence we have less heat on the earth on an average.

But despite of the altitude some places on the earth have distinct temperature than the other place at the same time of the year. This is due to their latitudinal location. The places near the equator are warmer most of the times throughout the year because they receive the most direct rays while the poles receive slanting rays and hence are colder even in summer when the earth is at lower altitudes.

A laser with a power of 1.0 mW has a beam radius of 1.0 mm. What is the peak value of the electric field in that beam

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The peak value of the electric field is 489.64 V/m

Explanation:

Given;

power of the laser, P = 1.0 mW = 1 x 10⁻³ W

Radius of the beam, R = 1.0 mm = 1 x 10⁻³ m

Area of the beam = πr² = π(1 x 10⁻³ )² = 3.142 x 10⁻⁶ m²

The average intensity of the light = P / A

The average intensity of the light = ( 1 x 10⁻³) / (3.142 x 10⁻⁶)

The average intensity of the light = 318.27 W/m²

The peak value of the electric field is given by;

$E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2I_{avg}}{c\epsilon_o}}\\\\E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2(318.27)}{(3*10^8)(8.85*10^{-12})}}\\\\E_o = 489.64 \ V/m$

Therefore, the peak value of the electric field is 489.64 V/m.

The pressure exerted by a gas is 2.0 atm while it has a volume of 350 mL. What would be the volume of this sample of gas at stan

34kurt

Answer:

700 mL or 0.0007 m³

Explanation:

P₁ = Initial pressure = 2 atm

V₁ = Initial volume = 350 mL

P₂ = Final pressure = 1 atm

V₂ = Final volume

Here the temperature remains constant. So, Boyle's law can be applied here.

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

$\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}=V_2\\\Rightarrow V_2=\frac{2\times 350}{1}\\\Rightarrow V_2=700\ mL$

So, volume of this sample of gas at standard atmospheric pressure would be 700 mL or 0.0007 m³

What is the fundamental frequency (in Hz) of a 0.632 m long tube, open at both ends, on a day when the speed of sound is 344 m/s

Greeley [361]

Answer:

$f=272.15Hz$

Explanation:

Given data

Length of tube L=0.632 m

Speed of sound v=344 m/s

To find

Fundamental frequency f

Solution

The fundamental frequency of the tube can be given as:

$f=\frac{v}{2L}\\ f=\frac{344m/s}{2(0.632m)}\\ f=272.15Hz$
